Building Zorro..

Well, I think the tricky part with Launcelot will be getting the powers right. I'd think straladin style powers would work best.

sure and the less glow baby glow flavor the better (hence my temptation to use a hybrid paladin/fighter)...but he did have a plethora of associated miracles.

Yeah, he might even be done just as well as a pure fighter. Its definitely tempting to make him a paladin, but I don't see where he was doing things like laying on hands or bringing divine fire down on his enemies. The Knights of the Round Table overall seem pretty mundane in terms of personal abilities.

The one thing it seems like to me is missing from 4e is a single-attacking martial striker. Rangers are great but a guy that tramples things under foot from horseback doesn't feel a lot like a defender to me and he's sure not using dual attack powers. FWT fighter just doesn't seem quite right.
 

The paladin of legend does have lay on hands but they seem typically rarer and more extreme.... they cure disease more oft or in general healing somebody who wouldn't heal other wise (movies give them something kin to raise the dead on ocasion). He pulled fire and damage resistance out of his hat fairly regularly though... including plant life like thorns that refused to damage him.

Combine some of the above with his fey lineage and the flavor shifts ;-) Well actually fey upbringing... he acknowledged the Ganis family
